i-3 Control Technology™

P1 Series Lighting Panel with i-3 Control Technology

OverviewSiemens P1 Series Lighting Panel withi-3 Control Technology is the next step in engineering innovation for our lighting control product portfolio. i-3 is a lighting control solution that allows engineers and end users to integrate, install, and interface controllable breakers into their electrical applications; hence the name i-3.

i-3 is designed to provide a simple,fl exible, compact solution for controlling branch lighting circuits remotely via a time schedule or an external signal (i.e. a switch, Building Automation System, etc.). i-3 reduces energy consumption by providing programmable remote control of Siemens BQD frame breakers with the use of our patented CPODs. This modular design produces a “smart” breaker type system that whencompared to traditional systems

lowers installation costs, minimizes the impact and cost of future system modifi cations, makes retrofi t applications less tedious, and reduces component replacement costs. i-3 offers a touch screen panel on its system controller that provides a user friendly graphical interface for commissioning and scheduling. All i-3 components mount inside a standard P1 lighting panel to provide valuable space savings. i-3 can stand-alone or be networked into a larger Building Automation System (BAS).

CPOD

The CPOD is a remotely operated electro-mechanical relay that is attached to a Siemens BQD molded case circuit breaker that allow loadsto be switched ON and OFF. The CPOD has the following features:

� UL Listed 489 CB Accessory� Same kA rating as the BQD breaker� Rated for 500,000 + operations

The CPOD connects to the load side of the breaker using the conductor tab that is inserted into the breaker load lug. The CPOD load lug is the same size as the circuit breaker load lug. Therefore, the load wire connections are attached to the load lug of the CPOD.

Manual Override The CPOD has a manual override that forces the main contacts in the CPOD from the open position to the closed position. Once the override lever is rotated to the closed position, the contacts remain closed until the CPOD receives a remote signal from the controller. This feature allowselectrical loads to be tested prior to confi guring the lighting control system which can be useful during installation and commissioning. The manual override of remote commands is momentary until controller is commissioned and takes over operation and is purely mechanical. There is no electrical feedback associated with the override.

Maglatch mechanismThe CPODs switch ON/OFF via a maglatch mechanism. The maglatch mechanism is designed to hold and actuate between the On and Off state. This bi-stable operation is achieved with the use of a solenoid, a permanent magnet, and a spring that ensure the CPOD contacts remain in its last state if power is lost. When power is restored, normal operation resumes. Unlike motor driven mechanisms that are prone to high inrush currents, slippage, failure, and loud noise due to the operation of the DC motor, the

maglatch mechanism is low power requiring approximately 1.7A @ 24VDC for 2-25 milliseconds, provides rapid operation that breaks continuity in less than 4.5 milliseconds, provides longer mechanical life of more than

half a million operations, and is quiet where the only noise is the sound of the contacts striking. CPOD statistics can be retrieved via the System Controller or the Modbus map that indicate to the user the number of times the CPOD has opened or closed and allows the user to determine when the CPOD has reached 500,000 operations.

* If the manual override is engaged while the controller is functioning, the controller will re-open the contacts. Signals from the controller take priority when functioning. This minimizes tampering when the system is functioning.

CPOD

Blow-Closed MechanismThe blow-closed mechanism is designed to keep the CPOD contacts closed during short circuit and over-load conditions. This is achieved by using a compression spring, a steel yoke and armature that function as a magnet, and two parallel conductors. During normal operation, the spring provides the force required to maintain the contacts in either the open or closed position which prevents the CPOD contacts from separating. During substantially high current levels, the parallel conductors produce a non-saturating force that is proportional to the square of the current and length over which the parallel conductors are acting that combine with the forces produced by the spring and magnet that keep the contacts closed. For more information, please refer to the Blow-Closed Mechanism White Paper. Available on www.sea.siemens.com/i-3.

Integrated ElectronicsThe CPOD contains a printed circuit board (PCB) that is used to control the CPOD contacts and communicate with the controller. The CPOD communicates with the controller through a data rail connection. The data rail transmits electronic commands between the controller and the CPOD. These commands can Open or Close the CPOD contacts, request contact status, or request other operational parameters. The PCB also has a microprocessor that manages the power supplied to the solenoid which minimizes the power supplied from the source and ensures proper operation of the solenoid.

Maintenance ReplacementAn exclusive i-3 system feature is that the connected branch circuits can keep operating even if the CPOD fails. Just remove the CPOD and use the breaker like a normal uncontrolled breaker. This keeps the lights on while waiting for a replacement CPOD.If the BQD breaker fails just go to any Siemens distributor and purchasethis off-the-shelf item.

The modularity of the CPOD/breaker combination reduces system down-time by allowing parts to be mixed and matched. This is not possible with a single unit remotely operated breaker.

If a CPOD fails:� There is minimal system downtime� Remove the CPOD from the panel� Connect the load to the load side of the breaker� Circuit is now controlled with the manual breaker switch � Order your replacement CPOD from a Siemens distributor

If a breaker fails:� Remove the breaker from the panel� Obtain an off-the shelf BQD breaker � BQD breakers are stock items and have a minimal lead time

Controllers

The i-3 P1 Series Lighting Control Panel has two available controllers that allow the user to implement time schedules, create zones, manage inputs, and display CPOD and system status through a serial connection or from the front mounted touchscreen panel. The I/O Board shown in Figure 1 provides the logic for the operation of the entire system.

Battery BackupIn the event that power is lost, a factory installed battery will maintain the system clock and panelboard confi gurations for at least one year.The lithium coin cell battery is rated for 10 years.

Communication and NetworkingConfi gurations

The i-3 I/O Controller is capable of communicating via EIB, Modbus RS485, or dry contacts (future Bacnet capabilities). The i-3 System Controller is capable of all the I/O Controller communication methods and optional Modbus TCP/IP. Modbus TCP/IP allows the system controller to communicate to other building systems over the building LAN. Each panel in the

11

system acts as a stand-alone unit or a “slave” to a greater building automation system. One system controller in a panel can network up to 7 additional panels (for a total of 8 panels). The I/O Controller can also be networked with Modbus RS485 or on a LAN. In order to network panels, 18 gauge twisted pair wires are used to communicate through EIB. The total

maximum cable length allowed for networking panels is 3,300 ft (1,000 meters).Note: Future versions of the system controller will be Internet capable for remote access and confi guration.Contact Siemens sales for more information.
